Linguistics, Cognitive Science, Mathematics-CS at UCSD. I do a bit of research here and there, and post pictures of my cats! Here lives some of my thoughts.

Hi, I’m Nolan. I’m graduating this Spring with majors in Linguistics, Math-CS, and Cognitive Science from UCSD.
I’m currently a researcher at the E4E avian bioacoustics lab here, and have done some industry work in NLP. I’m personally interested in grounding language & hope to meet more people!

Hello, world. So I caved and got on Bsky :-)
I finally finished my book, AI Engineering, and I'm excited to get back to building. So many fun applications to build!
What are you excited about?

Still fine tuning my feed, any recommendations for ML research and finding good papers / interesting work?

100% agree with this - I personally dislike AI as a blanket term for many things in general media
This is important work — analyzing how automated systems influence lives on a massive scale.
Every system needs a practical way to appeal to a human with power to override the system.
I do object to using the term “AI” — this report targets ALL automated systems, including if/else statements.

This is cool! Plug-in for generating your llms.txt from docusaurus.
that shouldn't be too difficult, i wrote a (semi-hacky) implementation for a docusaurus plugin over the weekend: github.com/din0s/docusa...

Since this platform is finally attracting a critical mass of ML researchers, here's our recent work on prompt-based vulnerabilities of coding assistants:
arxiv.org/abs/2407.11072
TL;DR — An attacker can convince your favorite LLM to suggest vulnerable code with just a minor change to the prompt!

MaPPing Your Model: Assessing the Impact of Adversarial Attacks on LLM-based Programming Assistants
LLM-based programming assistants offer the promise of programming faster but with the risk of introducing more security vulnerabilities. Prior work has studied how LLMs could be maliciously fine-tuned...

really hope this is true, could potentially show promise of drastically reducing carbon impact!
